Earlier today, we cleared up one question involving the Xiaomi Mi4. A company VP admitted that the back of the phone is not really metal, despite the fact that it looks very much like it is. But there were also some other questions involving the screen size of the device, and some other specs. Thanks to a website that lists the Xiaomi Mi4 as coming soon, we have what appears to be the most recently rumored specs for the flagship phone, set to be unveiled on Tuesday.

The price on the site says $499, but we will write that off as a placeholder for now. Meanwhile, the Xiaomi Mi4 is expected to offer a 5.5 inch screen with 1440 x 2560 QHD resolution. That works out to a pixel density of 538ppi. Driving the handset is allegedly a quad-core 2.5GHz Snapdragon 805 CPU with the Adreno 420 GPU. Inside, 3GB of RAM is expected, with 32GB of native storage. The 16MP rear camera is said to be equipped with OIS, and a 3050mAh battery should allow for all day use before a charge is needed. Android 4.4 is supposedly pre-installed with MIUI volume 6 along for the ride.

There still remains some contradictions, with other rumors calling for 16GB of native storage, and a 13MP rear snapper with an aperture of f/2.2. All of this speculation will end tomorrow, so check in often on Tuesday as Xiaomi takes the wrapping off of the Mi4. Although we don't expect it to happen, wouldn't it be something if Xiaomi tried a Hunger Marketing online sale for the device, immediately after introducing the phone?
